After what seems like years of anticipation, Pigzza has opened. Directly next to local music mecca Will's Pub on Mills Ave, the old garage that sat empty for quite a long time has had an amazing transformation, they even kept the garage doors. Pigzza will be an important part of the Mills/50/Virginia neighborhood.
Serving pastas, pizzas and a nice variety of related items, the theme is Italianish with some bbq ingredients on certain dishes.
For example you can select a pizza or a sandwich that has smoked brisket on it, or a smoked sausage app with meatballs. There's a pizza with bbq chicken and Alabama white sauce.
Adding the bbq ingredients to Italian dishes definitely makes for some interesting combinations.

The owner of Pigzza has been well known in the Orlando Restaurant scene for many years with the Treehouse Truck and Pig Floyd's just up the street.
Pigzza has a great wine list as well, much longer than I expected. They also have a good selection of cocktails, beer and sangria.

On my visit I was able to try an appetizer, cocktail, pasta and dessert.
I began with the olives and cheese appetizer, nice flavors and good start to the meal.
With my meal I tried the Paloma cocktail, nice refreshing taste, the banana peppers were an interesting ingredient.
Next was the parpadelle pasta. Pictured is the half portion. This had a good simple flavor with the pulled pork, cilantro and lemon.
I finished with the Banana Tiramisu, good combination of sweeteness and banana.
Overall I can't wait to explore the rest of the menu, there are lots of intriguing items.
